Nope, it was the 120 point scorer that had a grand total of 4 points the entire playoffs. Panarin is an absolute useless, overpaid loaf. Goodrow (who got traded) had more GOALS than Panarin had points. Do the Rangers want a president’s trophy or a Stanley cup? Clearly not interested in a cup.

Rempe could become one of my favorite players if he focuses on his actual job (hockey). I'm a fan of fighting in the sport - cheap shots and dangerous hits (like what Trouba does) is what I have an issue with.
Bridgeport should be the Sound Tigers again. There’s no islands in B’port. There is Long Island Sound and circus owner and former Mayor PT Barnum was from there. They had a great logo. AHL teams do not have to be named after the parent. The Hartford Wolfpack has been successful for 27 years without being the Rangers.
Getting rid of the Sound tigers was a huge mistake I live in Stratford going to B islanders games it’s sad empty. Then you can drive in hour to Springfield and a 8k sell out every night
The AHL has resorted to scheduling the Hartford Wolfpack (New York Rangers) only on Wednesday nights just to get people (read HWP fans) in the building on those nights. Otherwise they can’t draw flies. They ticked off a lot of fans by stripping that team of its identity.
I didn’t realize there was a dislike for that logo amongst Islanders fans. I feel that way about the old Avs yeti side logo and theme, no I know I’m in the minority there.
Laracque training Rempe ??? Poor Rempe … I still have bitter memories of when Laracque signed with the Canadiens and then refused to fight anyone meaningful… he was a joke during his tenure in Montreal
It’s a rival junior league that left the Hockey Canada umbrella. The top 5 AJHL teams from Alberta joined mid season last year to piss off hockey Canada even further. Considered a great development league for players interested in college scholarships.
Rempe needs to work on lots of other things before thinking he needs to work on his fighting. Maybe if he actually worked on his other skills he could get more minutes and not be a liability every time he steps on the ice. But that’s just wishful thinking.

Dude has large frame, size, strenght. If he just improved on his overall play skating, shooting, passing, checking he would get more minutes and be more useful. Most of the 5'10 skilled forwards would love to have Rempe's size.

Thats not true.

Laraque is the most useless enforcer to ever played for the habs. A teammate got hammered, he would then go to see him to invite to a fight. The other guy said nope, Laraque... Ok... As long as he doesn't pick up his stupid code, it could help I guess.
THANK YOU. I've seen so many people praising that Laraque was such a good enforcer and I did not see that in Montreal whatsoever lol. I'm so happy to see someone else saw that too lol

The fisherman has something local about it, and I love that. Pittsburgh has no penguins. I mean come on.
They have them at the zoo. That's what happens when you pick an animal because it sounds cool instead of it being local
Wilkes-Barre Scranton doesn’t have penguins either. Lol
